Re: special teams--add lack of any decent kicking game.  When GB took  us to 
Pasadena and Orlando, one of the difference makers were our PK's and  Punters. 
 A team like ours doesn't have the margin for error in terms of  missed FG's. 
 Just replay the TCU game, which ultimately cost us a bowl  bid, for 
starters.  
 
It would seem to me that it should be easier to recruit kickers at  NU than 
speedy skill players.  The type of HS athletes that go out for  the kicking 
positions might well be the "cerebral", less brawny, more brainy,  jocks that NU 
can go after.  Anybody disagree?
